In this episode, we talk with Brian Tippett about his role as the Pastor of Member Care at Peace Church.  He views his ministry in three circles: the Sr. saints, hospital visitation, and counseling (coaching).  Brian's heart is that the members of Peace Church know that we want to be with them through all their walks of life.  It is normal for the Christian to struggle and go through suffering, so his desire to help our members walk through these difficult times.
